A
moving story about the bond between a mother and her child.

My
Heart depicts the many ways a mother's heart can
experience love and emotion while her baby journeys through the milestones of
growing up. The story uses repetition and subtle variation to reflect the activity
and reactions of the mother's heart, and how they change with each mother-child
interaction.

The narrative moves
through the early years until the child goes off on their first independent
activity, a deeply moving moment for all mothers. Beautifully detailed
illustrations depict the connection between mother and child, reminding readers
that a mother's heart will always be with her children, no matter where they
go.
